GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The Am27X256 is a factory programmed and tested
OTP EPROM. It is progra mmed after pac kaging prior to
final test. Every device is rigorously tested under AC
and DC operating conditions to your stable code. It is
organized as 32 Kwords by 8 bits per word and is av ailable in plastic dual in-line packages (PDIP), as well as
plastic leaded chip carrier (PLCC) packages. ExpressROM devices provide a board-ready memory solution
for medium to high volume codes with short leadtimes.
This offers manufacturers a cost-effective and flexible
alternative to OTP EPROMs and mask programmed
ROMs.

Data can be accessed as fast as 55 ns, allowing
high-performance microprocessors to operate with reduced WAIT states. The device offers separate Output
Enable (OE#) and Chip Enable (CE#) controls, thus
eliminating bus contention in a multiple bus microprocessor system.
AMD’s CMOS process technology provides high
speed, low power, and high noise immunity. Typical
power consumption is only 80 mW in active mode, and
100 µW in standby mode.

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
Read Mode
T o obtain dat a at the device outputs, Chip Enable ( CE#)
and Output Enable (OE#) must be driv en low . CE# controls the power to the de vice and is typically used t o select the device . OE# en ables th e de v ice to out put dat a,
independent of device selection. Addresses must be
stable for at least t
ACC–tOE.
Refer to the Switching
Waveforms section for the timing diagram.
Standby Mode
The device enters the CMOS standby mode when CE#
is at V
± 0.3 V. Maximum V
CC
current is reduced to
CC
100 µA. The device enters the TTL-standby mode
when CE# is at V
. Maximum V
IH
current is reduced
CC
to 1.0 mA. When in either standby mode, the device
places its outputs in a high-impedance state, independent of the OE# input.
Output OR-Tieing
To accommodate multiple memory connections, a
two-line control function provides:
■ Low memory power dissipation, and
■ Assurance that output bus contention will not occur.
CE# should be decoded and used as the primary device-selecting function, while OE# be made a common
connection to all devices in the array and connected to
the READ line from the system control bus. This assures that all deselected memory devices are in their
low-power standby mode and that the output pins are
only active when data is desired from a particular memory device.
System Applications
During the switch between active and standby conditions, transient current peaks are produced on the rising and falling edges of Chip Enab le . The magnitude of
these transient current peaks is dependent on the output capacitance loading of the de vi ce. At a minim um, a
0.1 µF ceramic capacitor (high frequency, low inherent
inductance) sho uld be used on each device between
and VSS to minimize transient effects. In addition,
V
CC
to overcome the voltage drop caused by the inductive
effects of the printed circuit board traces on ExpressROM device arrays, a 4.7 µF bulk electrolytic capacitor
should be used between V
devices. The location of the capacitor should be close
to where the power supply is connected to the array.
